Abstract Which queries stand to gain or loose from diversifying their results?
Some queries are more difficult than others for diversification. Across a number
of conceptually different diversification methods, performance on such queries
tends to deteriorate after applying these diversification methods, even though their
initial performance in terms of relevance or diversity tends to be good.
